1918 Map of Big Hatchet Peak

About this map

Big Hatchet Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in the years following the turn of the century, rising sharply above the surrounding desert floor. The map documents a sparse but vital network of water sources essential for survival in this arid territory, including Las Cienegas Spring, Whitewater Wells, and Sheridan Wells. Along the northern edge of the range, the Hachita and Hueco Road serves as a primary transit corridor, connecting the remote outposts of the southwest New Mexico borderlands.
